A nuclear test explosion was detonated recently in the Pacific Ocean, creating a substantial blast with a yield of 7.3 kilotons, or magnitude 5.1 on the Richter scale if it had been measured as an earthquake. A nuclear test explosion detonated recently in the Pacific Ocean created a substantial blast with a yield of 7.3 kilotons, or magnitude 5.1 on the Richter scale as an earthquake. When a nuclear test explosion was detonated recently in the Pacific Ocean, it created a substantial blast with a yield of 7.3 kilotons; qualifying it to be magnitude 5.1 on the Richter scale if an earthquake. A nuclear test explosion detonated recently in the Pacific Ocean created a substantial blast with a yield of 7.3 kilotons; an earthquake with that force would measure as magnitude 5.1 on the Richter scale. When a nuclear test explosion was detonated recently in the Pacific Ocean, its substantial blast, which would be deemed magnitude 5.1 on the Richter scale for an earthquake, yielded 7.3 kilotons.
